Clinical Physician of the Year for the U.S. Public Health Service.
In addition, he explains, “as part of Indian Health Services, we’re one of the few health care systems in the country that provides direct patient care under a budget. We can’t spend what we have and expect someone else to pay for the rest. It’s tough to provide good health care and watch the bottom line at the same time.” Despite the challenges, Rottenbiller relishes his career. “You feel like you’re really doing something worthwhile,” he says. Rottenbiller notes that his patients likewise appreciate his longevity, in an organization where few doctors stay beyond the two-year rotation. “My patients like having a doctor who knows their history, knows their family. I enjoy having this consistent group of people who appreciate me, as well.” | |
